DLC Discussion Thread

[Nevfx]

Its going to get busy, so maybe we should do this? If any mods disagree, just merge this with the excisting discussion thread.

Have a look at this:

http://www.siliconera.com/2012/02/29/gilgamesh-and-other-final-fantasy-villains-are-coming-to-final-fantasy-xiii-2-as-dlc/

I cannot wait for Gilgamesh to be in my party! What do you think will be his role?

[Animax]

Oh my, that's great news indeed. Hopefully they release Heroine too. Having Terra as a Ravager would be so cool!

[Nevfx]

I wonder who the villain from VI will be, I really hope its Kefka... having Kefka as a monster ally?! I'd pay money. Seriously.

[Pastulio123]

I think it would be the Kaiser dragon :3 and I doubt there won't be a sephiroth or FFVII related dlc. Ha xD Imagine a rav Jenova. A blob moving around the screen xD

[Nevfx]

Yeah I guess :P

Im sure SOMETHING from FFVII will be involved yeah xD

[ChaosMuramasa]

Cloud as COM, Aerith as MED. Both tameable.

Make it happen, Square.

[LuckySeven]

Wow with all this character dlc what the hell are you going to do with them? Once you beat the game and get all the fragments there isn't much left to use the dlc characters for. This why I think a online multiplayer option is needed for this game

[Zodiark]

Ah, The Idea of the Coliseum really good.
:3

The point of the DLC bosses isn't to obtain them as allies. That's just a bonus. The actual point is to, well, fight them. Sure, having Omega Weapon in your party is pretty damn cool, but the entire reasoning behind purchasing him is so you can fight him. They're extra bosses. You buy them to fight them. If you're not satisfied with the fact that you get to fight them, then don't download them. :/

Anywho, you can be 100% sure that Square will not bother making a multiplayer anything for XIII-2. That's just not going to happen. Ever. :|

[Pastulio123]

Ahhh!!! Cloud using Omnislash in FFXIII-2 xD Or even better, Squall's Lionheart :'D

[Hulft]

Cloud as COM, Aerith as MED. Both tameable.

If the SE do this, they really knows how to get money from us.

And Gilgamesh will be in the next dlc, this is really interesting, hope he appear cool and funny as always.

[LuckySeven]

Um some dlc you won't get to fight. Plus there are outfits. I guess it's more of the line of getting them because your a fan

[ChaosMuramasa]

I was specifically talking about Coliseum based DLC since that was the topic at hand. I figured I made it clear enough.

The outfits serve their purpose for additional playthroughs and runs of the game. If you ever feel like starting over, you can use a new costume for the storyline. Things like that.

[LuckySeven]

I guess. Me personally i see the point of that last statement but there are people who do it. Hmm I dont think 3 dollars is worth it though. Maybe two. I mean I don't like putting anymore than five dollars in my own account for dlc and at least if it was two dollars I can buy two dlc instead of having to put another five dollars just to get a second dlc

[Nevfx]

I've decided to not bother with new outfits or weapons now, im only going to get the Coliseum opponents and episodes now.

I can seriously see every main character from the previous game, apart from maybe Lightning and Snow, as having there own episode as DLC, I do. Maybe even non-playable characters, you know? Its possible.

[ultima espio]

I wasn't expecting that...

Lol, this is gonna end up like the Dissidia wishlist xD

Same here. Besides the best outfits for them hasnt come out for them yet

[SquallXIII]

I agree, Lucky! Btw I wouldn't bother with any Cloud/Aerith dlc, i've grown tired of them. Still I imagine myself losing my sleep, should a Sephiroth dlc be announced :P (<--idiotic fanboy, no matter how hard I try to prove else)

Hmm, what's with the "weapons" section under downloadable content? I think it's only for XBox so far. Are they planning any dlc weapon releases for the ps3 too? I thought the only dlc weapons would be the pre-order exclusives and that Azrael. (they would be less useful postgame anyway, their stats are a lot worse than the game's own "ultimate" weapons).

[LuckySeven]

I think the weapons are worth buying more than outfit dlc. I mean if you still got stuff to do or you want to restart the exclusive weapons are actually Helpful to the cause. I'm pretty sure they will be for the ps3 too but after 360 like always :P

[Nevfx]

Im more interested in Episode DLC to honest.

[Mass Zero]

Just throwing in that the Sazh DLC is horrible. :/ Making coins in a casino? C'mon... As if the fragment and trophy involving Serendipity weren't bad enough.

Well of course but I meant between weapon and outfit dlc I think weapon dlc is more useful to buy

[Nevfx]

Well it tells his story there. And reveals A LOT about Chocolina. And unlocks him as a party member. I wasnt expecing an episode with battles though, otherwise we'd have been controlling him.

[LuckySeven]

I think just having him to play is good enough but we get a story too? What's not to like again?

[Mass Zero]

Having him as a party member isn't really interesting, having nothing left to do in the game. I was expecting this DLC to actually give me something interesting to do, again.

The fact that you're being forced to play casino games. Again.

[Nevfx]

Interesting like what, Mass? Like what did you expect from DLC :/ Dont get me wrong, I wish it was maybe more, but its just DLC, extra stuff, it was always gonna be something like this at least.

Maybe future ones will have more? I at least hope there not all in Serendipity -.-

And I would like some battles in future ones, but they would have to involve Serah and Noel, as I doubt the game will let you physically take control of anyone else in battle.

[DZXtreme]

Just having sazh is good enough :P I mean it was 5 dollars for a reason

[Nevfx]

He IS a very good SYN, he learns all buffs apart from Haste so far as I can tell.

[Terrina]

I know right. I saw bravery and faith and I was like yes!!!

[LuckySeven]

When I saw how much fortune medals I needed to get I was like fuuuuucccck! But it's not that bad and now I'm addicted to gambling 0.0 way to get the real message across through this game square. I know where I'm going on my 21st birthday

[Nevfx]

Yeah I love playin Chronobind :P

[LuckySeven]

Actually I got used to the other one. I didn't know how to play cards until I played This game XD

[xBlitzx]

I was gambling like a boss! I had way over 30 fortune medals XD

[LuckySeven]

Any news on when serahs dlc is coming out? Besides her swimsuit one

[SquallXIII]

How much did we need actually? Do you remember? I didn't know, I just played poker to my heart's content, I had over 35, talked to the "boss" and it happened. Didn't try chronobind though, i just viewed the tutorial once. Seems interesting, but I can't say I got the gist of its rules. :/

I hope we get to learn sth about Serah's dlc and Noel's Assassin's Garb soon, I like them both so much. Even better than Summoner's Garb and Warrior Attire that I'm currently addicted to :)

[TWOxACROSS]

You need a total of 30 Fortune Medals. So far I've done all of Choclina's quest and got plenty of medals from there, and I've been doing nothing but playing Chrono Bind for the rest. I actually really like that game. I think I got...like eight or nine Fortune Medals for playing a full match of the game until someone had Bust and the game ended. I totally would have won a Full Bind next turn too if the game didn't end T_T It was like over 400 coins! I just have nine more medals to go, and Sazh is a free man (so to speak).

I stay away from Poker because I'm still not good at it, and Chrono Bind is just a lot more fun.

@SquallXIII - I'll make a quick guide for Chrono Bind, because I do love it :3

[Nevfx]

Poker is easy, I noticed if on your first turn you go "all in" or raise by x4, they all fold straight away. Bluffing for the win :P You get a medal for each "all in" victory and some medals for "your struggle". I assume the last one is just for playing.
